Once Upon an Ancient Curse: A Retelling of Little Red Riding Hood by Michelle Miles

Rating: 

Red is supposed to be a skilled bowman in this version of Red Riding Hood, yet she never takes a good shot until the very end. There are werewolves, wolves, and a dire wolf who were once human. The plot to break the curse is a little bizarre, and it didn't hold up well in the dramatic finale. If the climactic finale had not been so pointless, the tale would have been much better, but there were some terrific action scenes. It's okay for an afternoon read.
